Recipe Creator Spotlight – WoonHeng

Tell us a little about yourself and your blog:

My name is WoonHeng Chia. I grew up in Malaysia and had a great opportunity to try a variety of different cuisines. I wish to share with others my passion for creating plant-based cuisines, usually made with an Asian twist. I love to veganize foods from various countries and cultures by exploring plant-based alternatives.

What makes you love Lotus Foods and what excites you most?

I was a long-time fan of Lotus Foods products especially the Forbidden Rice®, even before I started my Instagram account. Forbidden Rice® is my all-time favorite as I love texture in my food. It has a nutty flavor and goes so well with curries or fried rice. My other favorite has to be rice noodles. It goes so well with my ramen dishes and perfect for anyone who looks for a gluten-free noodle option.

I am grateful for the wonderful opportunity that Lotus Foods had given me and was able to work with the rice ramen and different types of delicious rice.

I am exploring a lot of other rice dishes that I grew up eating including Nasi lemak, Nasi kerabu, and glutinous rice dishes.
